Frode, upon confirming that the threat of this pink Mist of Sin far exceeded the black Mist of Sin, immediately dispatched members of the Sin Hunting Group to camp nearby.
The purpose of the Sin Hunting Group is to combat creatures born from Heretic Power and protect Originheart City.
Therefore, upon learning of the emergence of a new Mist of Sin, the majority of Demon Hunters responded.
In a short time, ten Demon Hunters gathered around the pink Mist of Sin and quickly set up a temporary camp nearby using their abilities.
With the camp established and the arrival of the Demon Hunters, the threat level of the pink Mist of Sin decreased slightly, but it was still insufficient. In the foreseeable future, the pink Mist of Sin will continuously birth creatures of Heretic Power, and the mere ten Demon Hunters will be far from sufficient to completely guard against it.
To ensure the safety of Originheart City, it is necessary to expand the Sin Hunting Group.
This is a long-term plan, and Angel did not pay full attention to it. With Frode in charge, he believed nothing should go wrong.
So, after the Demon Hunter camp was established, Angel temporarily bid farewell to the forest and returned to Originheart City.
In Originheart City, he chatted with Jon about recent events, learned about the new version update progress of the Mother Tree Network development team, and lastly left messages through the Tree Network to his brother Lyon and mentor Sanders. Only then did Angel leave the Wilderness of Dreams again.
...
Opening his eyes on the Gondola, Angel leaned against the ship’s edge and looked down.
The endless sea still stretched below, but different from before he slept, the surface of the Gentle Wave Sea now had a thin layer of frost mist.
The presence of this frost mist caused the surrounding temperature to plummet sharply.
From the change in the environment and the temperature feedback, Angel could basically confirm that they were not far from Malaya Ice Mountain.
Angel raised his head and quietly called out, "Lobal."
As his voice fell, the figure of the Tri-headed Lionhound slowly appeared outside the ship.
"Master, what do you require?" A respectful voice came from the tail head’s mouth.
The main and auxiliary heads smartly kept silent because they knew well that when Angel spoke of Lobal, he referred only to the tail head.
Angel: "Tell me what you know about Malaya Ice Mountain and Frost Iser."
Although Angel had obtained some related information, he wanted to hear how Lobal, who possessed a sage-like presence, perceived this region and its monarch.
Lobal’s tail head pondered for a moment, then began to methodically recount the information he knew.
Malaya Ice Mountain is not a land ice mountain, but a giant unmelting ice floe drifting on the Gentle Wave Sea. Countless ice and snow creatures inhabit it, but Malaya Ice Mountain does not only harbor ice-related creatures. In the ocean beneath the ice mountain, there are also numerous water-related creatures under the control of Frost Iser.
The above is a general overview of Malaya Ice Mountain. Then Lobal began talking about Frost Iser.
As Lobal delved deeper into describing Frost Iser, Angel’s expression became slightly odd.
Because before this, his most detailed information about Frost Iser came from Mr. Magu. After all, the Region of Fire and Malaya Ice Mountain have always been adversaries, and generally, the person who knows your information best is either your family or your enemy.
Angel had already received a comprehensive description of Frost Iser from Magu.
In Magu’s words, Frost Iser is a proud, indifferent, wise, yet hostile plunderer.
Putting aside slightly emotional descriptions and ignoring the ancient rivalry between fire and ice elements, Angel’s basic concept of Frost Iser is a proud and aloof Ice Monarch. Meeting and persuading the other party might not be easy. Angel even thought before that meeting Frost Iser might ultimately resort to force.
But in Lobal’s mouth, the portrayal of Frost Iser was overflowing with praise.
Angel could still understand qualities like boldness and responsibility; however, when Lobal mentioned Frost Iser being kind, with a cold exterior but a warm heart, Angel felt confused.
Why is the information he received in the Region of Fire completely different?
Before Angel could question, Dangross interrupted, "Nonsense, Frost Iser is the most terrifying and indifferent monarch in the world. It is nothing like you say, having a warm heart. Its heart is cold, devoid of warmth!"
After Dangross spoke, Cubic murmured nearby, "His Highness Frost is an ice element creature, of course, its heart is cold..."
Dangross turned his head, "Shut up."
Cubic immediately fell silent, while Dangross continued to glare angrily at Lobal.
Lobal did not pick faults with Dangross’s words but instead said slowly, "You come from the Region of Fire, so I understand your prejudice."
"It’s not prejudice, it’s fact!" Dangross protested.
Lobal didn’t argue with Dangross, instead agreeing, "I agree with what you said. Your view of His Highness Frost might be factual, but there’s certainly prejudice involved. Don’t rush to refute; let me explain first."
"Ice and fire are attributes of natural opposition rare in the Tidal World. The conflict between them might even be inherent. Moreover, the repeated clashes between Malaya Ice Mountain and the Region of Fire have intensified the hatred between the two races. Therefore, your perspective on His Highness Frost naturally carries a subjective mindset. Thus, in your view, this is indeed a fact."
"But from my perspective, the answer is completely different. Since we have no animosity with His Highness Frost, we can view His Highness Frost’s situation more objectively."
Just as Lobal finished speaking, without waiting for Dangross to react, Cubic chimed in, "You claim to be objective? Not necessarily."
Angel focused his attention on Cubic, "Why do you say this?"
Cubic flapped its wings, landing on the table, its round eyes looking at Lobal outside the ship, "I once heard Lord Kamil say that the relationship between Storm Ridge and Malaya Ice Mountain is very friendly."
Angel looked at Lobal, who paused for a moment before saying, "Indeed, we have a good relationship with Malaya Ice Mountain because the Hurricane His Highness once studied at Malaya Ice Mountain for a time."
Hurricane Suporio of Storm Ridge studied at Malaya Ice Mountain? Angel’s eyes flashed with surprise.
"Before Hurricane His Highness became a monarch, to break the shackles of strength, he went to study with His Highness Frost for a time. Consequently, Storm Ridge and Malaya Ice Mountain have a comparatively good relationship." Lobal paused, "But even without this connection, I still uphold my previous viewpoint. Because at the time Hurricane His Highness was just a minor figure studying at Malaya Ice Mountain, yet he still received support from His Highness Frost, who taught him wholeheartedly. This alone offers a glimpse."
Lyon agreed with the latter part of what Lobal said; different positions yield different answers.
However, Lyon was more interested in why the Whirlwind Huporio sought learning from Frost Iser.
Quickly, Lobal provided the answer: "Because Frost Iser is a Snow Queen."
Though an ice creature, she can also control the wild ice winds, making her a unique ice creature. What the Whirlwind Huporio learned from Frost Iser is naturally the control of wind.
